Triple H is one of the most decorated wrestlers in the history of the WWE. Opponents used to shiver even with his presence in the ring. However, not many people know that even he used to fear one of his opponents. In an interview, the current chief content officer of WWE said that his biggest rival was The Rock (Dwayne Johnson).
Paul (Triple H's real name) has said that after Austin got injured, he and The Rock became rivals. The former added that it was an interesting rivalry between the two as he started before Dwayne.
"It’s hard to say," Triple H, real name Paul Levesque, said when asked about the rivalries in an exclusive to SPORTbible, "Sort of leading into that time frame, there’s a moment where the Attitude Era is getting into full swing and then
"The Rock and I is an interesting thing, because I come in a little bit before he does as a talent, I’m Hunter Hearst Helmsley and he comes in as Rocky Maivia. We wrestle over the Intercontinental title.
Dwayne became The Rock, I transformed into Triple H: Paul Levesque
The retired wrestler added that when his rival, Johnson became The Rock, he decided to transform into Triple H. Notably, Levesque further added that they are coming out of characters.
"He becomes the Rock, goes with the Nation of Domination, I transformed into Triple H.
"We’re coming out of these characters, I transform into Triple H, DX is formed, we have rivalries, over that, over the Intercontinental title, then we get into these groups, then it’s sort of DX vs the Nation, he and I are battling over the Intercontinental again. And then he full blown becomes the Rock, leaves the Nation and I become more Triple H and leave DX, we fight over the WWE championship.
"Like our careers sort of, in a way, marry each other and are intertwined with each other along the way and we never sort of had that defining WrestleMania moment."
